Matt: Unless you can find a specifc locale that uses a 24 hour format (which is not Military time -- it's just that the US still insists on a 12 hour mechansim), you'll just have to write a small bit of code that formats the string for you. Get the hours and minutes from your Date, slap a 0 in front of the hours if it's less than 9 and concatenate the pieces together for display. -Rich Matt Connors wrote: > Hi, > > I have a java.util.Date object and would like to format it in Military time > (24 hour format) for string output.
